An all perennial SFG?

Questions, I have so many! But I am new at this and don't know what I am doing.
I am wondering if I could do a bed of all perinieal herbs in a SFG? I want to grow Rosemary, Lavendar, Sage, chives, and several others. Can you do that in SFGing? I would not want to pull them up in the fall but leave them to come again in the spring.

Most of my herb bed is all perennials. No problem and a lot less work.

Sure why not, I put self seeding flowers out there.

I am making a perenial herb garden this year as well. Some of the herbs will be in boxes, some in pots, and some in the ground. Some are ALREADY in the ground, and so that has chosen where I will do my herb garden!

I think an all-perennial SFG herb garden is a great idea. My perennial herbs are already established outside my SFGs, but if I had to start anew, I'd give them their own bed.
